Chapter 12: The Ring Is Missing

Lin Fan woke up from the rental house, this time the time ring ritual not only gained a lot of time power, but also experimented with time clones, and most importantly, got the information of the second candle.

"And the guy on the top of the last building. Lin Fan remembered the last person who jumped from the top of the building, the other party's black cloak and a strange black mask, and he couldn't see who it was.

"Drip, drip, drip. The mobile phone screamed, and Lin Fan opened it and found that it was the company's phone, which couldn't help but make Lin Fan frown, after all, he had just returned to the past and found that the trace of a candle was in the company.

"When there was a candle incident, wasn't it a notice to suspend work for three days?" Lin Fan remembered the boss's text message notification, how could someone in the company call.

"Hey, Lin Fan?" was the boss's secretary on the other side of the phone, and she said in a tone that didn't know whether it was surprise or fright: "Come to the company, the police are waiting for you, and the boss is dead." ”

"Police?" The cold sweat on Lin Fan's forehead burst out instantly, why did he suddenly pull the police again, and how did the dead boss die?

"That's right, the time of the boss's death was determined to be the night two days ago, and you were the last to leave that day, and the police told you to just interrogate you to ask about some information. The secretary gloated a little and said, "After all, you and the boss also have a lot of conflicts, if you don't come to the company, the police will go to you to ask for someone." ”

"Got it, go right away. Lin Fan forced himself to calm down.

"Now there are three possibilities for the boss to be killed, one is the trouble caused by the candle, in addition to the court, there are still people looking for candles, after all, the people in the court have killed the dead, and there will be no police business. ”

"The second type, I killed the boss, there is a future me, now I don't know that I am crazy, I have always wanted to make me guilty of murder, this time I was killed, if the scene left traces about me, it is extremely unfavorable for me, after all, the police blocked the scene, it means that the scene has been observed. ”

"The third, the man in black in the mask last night, his identity has yet to be determined. ”

"Until then, I'm going back. Lin Fan is ready for the time ring ceremony again, now if he runs to the company and doesn't know anything, maybe he will be caught just after he gets there, of course, if he escapes, then he will be on the wanted list, so the best choice is to go back to two days ago and check the scene.

With the continuous expansion of the ring, Lin Fan seized the opportunity and reached the earliest time he could reach, at this time, the first day of his self had not yet been possessed, and his past body was on his way to work.

Looking at the sun that had just risen in the morning, Lin Fan quietly waited for the opportunity, the power of time flowed slowly, ready to condense the time clone at any time, and soon Lin Fan entered the elevator alone, but what puzzled Lin Fan was that the monitoring of the elevator was not broken now.

"There are more and more strange things. Lin Fan waited for a while, and he also descended on the past a day ago, and that kind of interception barrier appeared again, bringing Lin Fan a lot of time power.

"Gotta go to the monitoring room and take a look. Lin Fan took advantage of the past to go to the toilet and quietly condensed the time clone, there was a sound outside the door, watching the consciousness of a day ago leave, and he was also stationed in the time clone.

"Finally free. Lin Fan moved the time clone, quietly waiting for the time when there was no one outside, pushed open the door and thought about how to get out, and saw a person wearing a black cloak and a strange mask looking at him.

"I thought you'd have to stay in there a few more minutes. "The masked man's voice seems to have been processed, and it is impossible to hear whose voice it is.

"Who are you?" Lin Fan was a little shy to cover his body, and at the same time looked towards the identity of the other party.

"I'm no one right now, and if I had to say anything, I could be called the founder of the Space-Time Ring. The masked man said slowly, "I'm not sure yet, I'm still in the future, so I'm anyone." ”

"I could be a clone of the great being of the Spacetime Circle, or some future prank by that Shadow B guy, or anyone in the Spacetime Ring who performed the Spacetime Ring ritual. The masked man pointed at Lin Fan and said, "Do you want to uncover my mask and see which one I am?"

"Forget it. Lin Fan's mind was full of mush, he probably understood the other party's words, but to be specific, he was full of confusion.

"Your candle is about to be lit, take the opportunity, the serpent's word, it's up to you to choose. The masked man smiled, and turned into black smoke and drifted away, leaving behind the black clothes and cape, and the mask.

"Inexplicable. Lin Fan listened to those words, his heart was full of doubts, he looked at the clothes that fell on the ground, heard the footsteps slowly approaching outside, gritted his teeth and picked up the clothes that fell on the ground, entered a toilet cubicle, and changed his clothes.

And when the clothes and cloak were put on, Lin Fan felt the special ability of this garment, people who did not have special vision could not see the person wearing the cloak, that is, the legendary invisibility cloak, the reason why Lin Fan was able to see it was because he was now a time clone, and his essence was composed of the power of time.

And that mask also has a special ability, it can cover the wearer's breath traces and heartbeat temperature and other information, so as not to leak out, with cloak clothes, in front of ordinary people as if it does not exist, as long as you are not stupid enough to take the initiative to hit the other party.

"It's a time traveler's artifact. Lin Fan thought that with this equipment, his actions could be much bolder.

Dafang got out of the toilet, ran to the monitoring center in the center of the building, and checked it slightly, sure enough, all the monitoring of the building is now in good condition, even the monitoring of the educational institution on the second floor is also running well.

"First turn off the monitoring of the elevator and the second floor, and then I have to run again to destroy the monitoring there to make up for the time and space. A hint of enlightenment rose in Lin Fan's heart, and he hurriedly ran to finish the matter.

A wave of time power poured into the body, different from the original time power obtained by agitating time and space, this time power brought by completing the space-time cycle seemed to have a unique mystery, driving Lin Fan's original time power to form a ring in the body, but the ring was missing.

"It's those times. Lin Fan's first thought was the time sucked away by the candle above his head, but the candle was still with him, so those gaps, Lin Fan remembered the inch of time he traded, and the time that was taken away by the mentor's shadow B.

"I see, the practice of the time ring ritual, when it reaches a high place, the time power in my body must form a ring, and the time consumed by spells also returns to myself, only those times that are traded out are controlled by others, and if I don't make up for those times, I will never be able to complete my time ring. ”

A sense of urgency rose in Lin Fan's heart again, and this feeling of being dragged in his hand was not good.

"Looking forward to your performance, Crimson Serpent!" a ring in the sky turned, shielding the space-time fluctuations from the Bureau of Countermeasures.
